Resurfacing, Remodeling And Repairing Kitchen Cabinets

Home | Home-and-Family | Home-Improvement

You've had it with your kitchen cabinets. It's the end of the line. Some pop open on their own or refuse to close completely. And the paint looks terrible. You're putting together a budget for remodeling your kitchen, including cabinets and countertops. Do you need new cabinets entirely or are you just looking at kitchen cabinet repair?

Let's look at some options. Depending on your budget, your plans for the home, and your existing scheme, you can have your kitchen cabinets repaired, refaced, refinished, or completely replaced. And that includes the hardware.

Resurfacing kitchen cabinets means that a contractor will strip off old paint, sand your existing cabinets, and re-seal them. It's a price-wise solution and your cabinets will look brand new. Oil-based primers and spray-on oil-based finishes can work wonders.

Resurfacing or Replacing Kitchen Cabinets

Resurfacing kitchen cabinets can be a solid option if your cabinets are in sound working order - or a good choice following a kitchen cabinet repair. Your contractor will replace doors and drawer fronts, repaint the cabinet front panels and sides. You can match your existing dcor or create a new one, depending on your plans for your countertops and floor.

If it's time for a complete remodeling of your kitchen and cabinets, you'll have to decide whether you can use stock cabinets or order a custom set built to your specifications. Your considerations should cover the material choices (woods and/or metals), hardware (pulls and knobs), interior accessories (Lazy Susans or modular shelving), and workmanship.

Many homeowners who planned on selling their homes are using the downturn in the economy as a time to prep their home for future sales through making improvements. Remodeling kitchen cabinets is one way to add value.
